Show notes

Hello and welcome to Front End Chatter, Britain's premium motorcycling podcast, hosted by Martin Fitz-Gibbons and Simon Hargreaves. This is episode 205, probably, and is supported in its endeavours by Bennetts, the bike insurance specialists – and bikesocial.co.uk, the number one place to go for bike-related news, reviews and product and kit tests. And check out Bennetts' YouTube channel, with all the lovely lovely lovely moving images contained therein.

And on this week's FEC we natter about

• Motorcycle Live – was it any good, what was the vibe, any hot takes? • KTM – more financial woes, and they thought chocolate cams were bad... • Why the Govt's failure to have plans to encourage the use of motorcycles isn't the bad news it might sound like... • ...but we can't still use all bus lanes • plans to introduce a blanket 50mph speed limit on Scottish single-lane carriageways • when is depreciation slight enough to make an upgrade worthwhile? • some EV stuff Simon doesn't understand

Plus loads... well, *some* more... please get in touch at [email protected] with your thoughts, musings, questions and ponderings.
